• The Subaru Sambar is often called the “Porsche of kei trucks” because of its rear-engine layout and unique driving character compared with other micro trucks.

• Subaru used the EN07 four-cylinder engine family in these models – unusual in the kei class, where most rivals used three-cylinder engines.

• Extra Low (EL) gear plus 4WD and a diff lock make this one of the most capable Sambar configurations for hills, rough ground, and slow work.

• Japanese municipalities and volunteer fire units used compact Sambar fire trucks to reach narrow streets and tight rural roads that full-size apparatus could not.
